The Champion Power Equipment 5500-Watt Inverter Generator with CO Shield is ultra-quiet and ideal for camping, tailgating, powering items around the RV or providing backup for your essentials. Champion's EZ Start Dial makes getting started quick and easy. This unit features Cold Start Technology, Extended Run Time, and an easy to read fuel gauge. With a 0.5-quart oil capacity (included 10W-30) and a low oil shut-off sensor, this inverter operates at an ultra-quiet 61dBA from 23 feet, which is about as loud as normal speech. The no tool access panel and oil drain tube allow for easy maintenance. Confidently connect your sensitive electronics since this inverter produces Clean Power (less than 3% THD). Operate your Dual Fuel inverter right out of the box on gasoline or propane, and easily switch fuels with the EZ Start dial. When the 2.25-gallon tank of gasoline is full, the 224cc Champion engine produces 5500 starting watts and 4000 running watts and will run for up to 11 hours at 25% load. When using a 20-pound propane tank, it produces 5500 starting watts and 3600 running watts and will run for up to 21 hours at 25% load. The covered outlets in this RV Ready inverter include a 120V 30A RV (TT-30R), a 120V 20A household duplex outlet (5-20R), and a 12V regulated automotive outlet. The optional Parallel Kit (sold separately), with included standard 50-amp RV outlet, allows you to increase output by connecting up to two inverters. The never flat tires and fold-down handle make transport a cinch. Buy this EPA certified generator with confidence -Champion Support and our nationwide network of service centers will back up your purchase with a 3-year limited warranty and FREE lifetime technical support. CO Shield technology monitors the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas produced by engine exhaust when the generator is running. If CO Shield detects unsafe elevated levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine. CO Shield is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation. DO NOT allow engine exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through windows, doors, vents or other openings. Generators must ALWAYS be used outdoors, far away from occupied buildings with engine exhaust pointed away from people and buildings. Meets the requirements of ANSI/PGMA G300.Items Included: Engine Oil Propane (LPG) Hose Oil Funnel 8/10 mm Wrench Spark Plug Wrench Reversible Phillips/Flathead Screwdriver Battery

Q&As

1 - 10 of 11 Questions

Q: How is this work well in 10-12000 feet elevation

a month ago
1 Answer
  • A: The Champion Power Equipment 5500W Dual Fuel Inverter Generator will suffer a significant 35% to 42% loss in power output at 10,000 to 12,000 feet elevation. All naturally aspirated internal combustion engines lose performance at high altitudes due to thin, oxygen-poor air.

Q: can you use any 12 volt battery to start the generator?

4 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Howdy neighbor! No, you cannot use just any 12-volt battery because a standard car or marine battery is physically too large to fit inside the generator's dedicated internal compartment. To hook up properly to the factory cables, you must use a small, specific 12-volt battery that matches the original dimensions. However, in a pinch, you can absolutely use standard jumper cables to temporarily hook up an external car battery to jump-start the engine!

Q: Does it throttle down when light load?

7 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hello, Champion units are designed to operate at a constant engine speed of 3,600 RPM to maintain a stable 60 Hz output. On applicable inverter models, ECO Mode can be enabled to automatically adjust engine speed based on load demand, which improves fuel efficiency and reduces noise while still maintaining proper frequency through the inverter system. If you have any other questions, please contact our support team at 877-338-0999, support@cpeauto.com, or use our live chat 3option located on our website. -Thank you

I bought this generator after an EF3 tornados ripped through Menasha 7/27. Works great excellent noise reduction and really conserves fuel in eco mode.

Great fuel economy, and quiet

a month ago
Bought this because I needed a quiet inverter for rodeos. Out of the box easy to set up. Filled with oil it started right up on gas. Put enough gas in to run my 5 hours of break in oil. Ran perfect. Changed oil with ease, hooked it up to propane, it ran an A/C, fridge, microwave, air fryer, and all other electronics flawlessly for over 22 hours on 1 gas bottle. Ran over 48 hrs almost continuously and never missed a beat. Only shut off to change the bottle. Oh and in 2 flooding rain storm without any cover. My 3rd Champion generator I own. Definitely recommend. Runs strong, long and quiet.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Very nice inverter generator for the price

a month ago
Startup is a breeze, runtime is amazing. After the initial break in period, this inverter generator handles everything I can throw it's way. It's a tad bit heavy, but that is to be expected for a generator this size, but with the grab handles, fold out extension arm and never flat tires, this thing moves around easily.

Yes, I recommend this product.
